Tony Almeida Returns In 24: LIVE ANOTHER DAY Blu-Ray Extra
Now, days prior to the blu-ray release, Entertainment Weekly has released a special feature which debuts the return of Jack Bauer's old friend and enemy, Tony Almeida.
When 24: Live Another Day is released on Blu-ray and DVD on Sept. 30, fans of theshow will be reintroduced to a character they haven’t seen in a while: Fan favorite Tony Almeida. Almeida makes his return in “Solitary,” a Blu-ray exclusive feature that revisits Jack’s former colleague-turned-terrorist in a new storyline extension. Now, EW has an exclusive first look at “Solitary,” in which Almeida requests to be let out of solitary. He claims that he’d be willing to work for the police by going undercover in general population and befriending terrorists to find out their plots. According to Almeida, his “desire for revenge” consumed him after his wife’s death and now that he’s had time to reflect, he’s realized that his wife would have hated the person he’s become. Watch his plea below.
It is interesting how this scene is included as a blu-ray special feature. The scene clearly does not have any relation to the plot of the 9th Season. Could this be a scene filmed just to give the fans something extra, or could it be used as a plot device for a possible 10th Season?
